CHAPTER 4
LOCAL MANAGEMENT
This chapter provides information about using Local Management with
the VHSIM-G02. The VHSIM-G02 is managed using the Local
Management Ethernet screens for configuration and statistics on the host
platform.
4.1 REQUIREMENTS
Make sure that the following requirements have been met before
accessing the VHSIM-G02 through Local Management:
• The VHSIM-G02 is installed in the host platform.
• The device is powered up and running with no error LED conditions.
• A Local Management terminal is properly configured and connected
to the host platform. Refer to the host platform user’s guide to establish
a Local Management connection.
4.2 GIGABIT PORT MODE
Local Management Network Tools can be used to change the status of the
Gigabit Port Mode. Either both ports can be enabled at the same time, or
Port 1 can be active and Port 2 can be set up as redundant. Use the
gigabit_port_mode command for this process. Refer to the host
platforms’ Local Management documentation for details on this process.
Refer to Section 3.2 for hardware restrictions on setting redundancy.
NOTE
The host platform is the interface module or standalone device
in which the VHSIM-G02 is installed.
Important
The Local Management screens are used by the host platform for both
configuration and statistics information. These screens will not be
repeated in this manual. Refer to the host platform documentation for
information on Local Management screens. Refer to Section 1.4 for
information on how to obtain host platform manuals.
